Super Invincible Battleship
Chapter 966

Chapter 966: Chapter 390: Stunned Chapter 966: Chapter 390: Stunned Throughout the Spring Festival period, Yan Fei put aside his work on the sereclamation project and stayed by Wen Rou's side the whole time. After spending this period alone together, their relationship became even closer, almost wishing it was already June, when Wen Rou's biological parents would appear, and they could officially get married and start a family of their own, raising children.

The management of Dream Island was very humane, and the welfare benefits were also excellent. Since Yan Fei's own parents had passed away early, he wished his employees to spend more time with their families. Dream Island's Spring Festival holiday was quite long, starting ten days before the Spring Festival and continuing until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the Lantern Festival, making for a total of 25 days off. Only after the Lantern Festival did the staff of Dream Island gradually return to the island to begin their work for the new year.

Last year, Dream Island showed its formidable armed force, so this year no one dared to target the employees of Dream Island. They all returned to the island without exception. Moreover, some employees brought their family members back with them to Dream Island. The aim of these staff members was to find jobs for their family members on the island, and even if they did not find jobs, it was alright; their own income was sufficient to support a family. In this way, they no longer had to live separately and endure the agony of missing each other.

After more than a year of rapid construction, Dream Island was filled with buildings, its prosperity rivaling that of some fourth-tier small cities in domestic China. And in the foreseeable future, Dream Island would grow even more prosperous, making life on the island even more convenient. That was why the staff of Dream Island, who previously hesitated, hurriedly moved their family members to the island, considering settling down on Dream Island for good.

After working and living on Dream Island for over a year, the employees discovered an amazing phenomenon: although Dream Island was built from scratch, its natural environment was extremely good, with a spring-like climate all year round, not at all like a barren island just emerged from the sea surface. Moreover, the air on Dream Island was very fresh, refreshing to the spirit, almost like a haven of peace and happiness.

Having worked there for more than a year, they hardly fell ill. Even though their work was hard, their health had improved. When they returned to domestic China, they immediately noticed that although the air quality was constantly improving, they could no longer adapt to the air environment in China. That's why they thought of bringing their families to Dream Island to live in such a superior environment.

When the employees first came to work on Dream Island, they all lived in simple shanties as Dream Island was still in its developmental phase. However, as conditions gradually improved, they moved into collective apartments. These collective apartments were tailor-made for all workers by Dream Island, free of charge, and the average size was just under 25 square meters, with an independent kitchen and bathroom, and the living facilities were also fairly complete, sufficient for one person's dwelling.

When these employees brought their families to Dream Island, the size of the collective apartments seemed small. Naturally, they could not continue to live in these collective apartments, so they began to rent large apartments built on Dream Island. Compared with the collective apartments, these large apartments had a better environment, more complete facilities, with a living area varying from 50 to 200 square meters.

One had to pay rent for these large apartments, of which Dream Island had built many, not just for Dream Island's employees, but also for renting to outsiders. However, the rent charged to outsiders was somewhat high, while internal employees received a certain discount. Nevertheless, this rent was completely affordable for the workers on Dream Island, whose average annual income reached 400,000 RMB.

Chinese people have a profound fixation on owning their homes, so some people who have made a lot of money wanted to build their own houses on Dream Island and permanently reside there.

However, Yan Fei owned all the rights to Dream Island, and naturally, the land belonged to Yan Fei as well. Persuaded by Lu Pingping, and to avoid future unrest over land ownership, Yan Fei adopted the principle of private land ownership on Dream Island and did not plan to sell the land on Dream Island.

Even if China and other countries in the world wanted to build liaison offices on Dream Island, they could not buy the land on Dream Island; they could only rent it and then build their own designed houses on this piece of land. Since there was no land ownership, these countries' liaison offices naturally did not enjoy any special privileges and were all managed by the Dream Island Management Department. If anyone violated the regulations of Dream Island, they would be subject to Dream Island's sanctions and punishments.

Leasing land on Dream Island was very expensive, and the lease term could not exceed 20 years, after which it could be renewed. Precisely because of Dream Island's strict land management, those who chose to build private buildings directly on Dream Island remained in the minority, with the majority opting to rent pre-constructed buildings on the island.

As long as one did not build a house by themselves, renting an existing house on Dream Island was much more cost-effective. So, after various calculations, the vast majority of people chose to rent houses on Dream Island. As a result, in a short period of time, many employee families moved into the rental houses that had been vacant after completion.
